My Summary
About Me
Hello my name is Robyn , 19 years experience looking after children of all ages.
I am a cheerful energetic nanny who is organised, active and self motivated. I adore children, arts/ crafts and cooking, and nannying allows me to combine all those topics. Education and development is vital to children, and I gain a lot of satisfaction from thinking of fun activities or days out that complement various developmental stages. I enjoy creating delicious and nutritious meals that maintain a childs health and wellbeing. Lastly, I am first aid trained, hold a clean driving licence and I'm flexible with hours and location.
Presently im looking for Ad hoc positions around Sussex but I do drive and can cover London areas is travel is covered. At the moment I have weekday mornings and weekends free as well as evenings for babysitting or overnight stays. Presently I’m looking after a few little people all under 3 years. Previous to being self employed I worked as a full time live in nanny for a lovely family that I have been with for over 5 years. They have relocated abroad and I have moved back home to Sussex .

Robyn will have been looking after our son regularly for six months before maternity leave starts again.
From the very first message, she came across as warm, reliable and reassuringly 'normal'. On our first meeting, our son (who was only 10months at the time) ran over to her and gave her a cuddle. We were sold!
Robyn is caring, happy and patient. When home, we only ever hear our son having belly laughs with her. She takes him out, plays and reads to him and he absolutely adores her. She is more than happy to keep to the routine we wanted, which made life easy.
On top of this, Robyn is reliable, flexible and easy company.
We are very sad to let her go so soon and hope we have the opportunity to have her back in the future!!

Communication
Robyn was our live in Nanny for 4 years, when she started we had a one year old, when she left we had two girls of 5 and 2. She was a godsend to us during this challenging period of our lives and remains a good friend to us and the girls.
We left Robyn in sole charge of our girls all day and sometimes overnight. She is great at entertaining them and seems to thoroughly enjoy herself while playing with them. She can cook, drive, look after the house and be silly.
I highly recommend her.
